The Cat House, Henfield

Image: © Ian Hawfinch Taken: 25 Aug 2005

At one time the house was owned by a Bob Ward. The story goes that Bob's canary was killed by a cat - so he put images of a cat with a bird in its claws around the house as a constant reminder to the cat's owner (Canon Woodard) that it was his cat that killed the canary. (The Canon would have to pass the house on his way to nearby Henfield church.)
